Liu Kai was very unhappy with the white-robed man's attitude.

He had been sitting upright out of politeness, but he hadn't expected the other person to be so rude.

Moreover, judging from General Secretary Qiu Xingzhou's attitude just now, he has absolutely no goodwill towards this so-called Feng family.

Therefore, Liu Kai no longer needed to worry about saving face.

His face immediately darkened.

He leaned back lazily in his chair, crossed his legs, and even leisurely lit a cigarette.

Seeing his nonchalant demeanor, the bigwigs inside the soundproof glass enclosure couldn't help but smile.

Body language is also a form of language.

If you act too humble and weak, you'll only lose face and won't achieve anything.

The "skeleton soldiers" also seemed unhappy with Liu Kai's attitude.

His arrogant and indifferent expression was mixed with a hint of anger.

The two stared at each other for a long time, until the cigarette in Liu Kai's hand had burned down to half its end.

The "skeleton soldier" finally spoke.

Although his tone was full of anger, he spoke in fluent and clear Chinese: "Chinese people, you should learn to be humble!"

Liu Kai didn't even lift his eyelids, flicked his cigarette ash, and said indifferently, "Didn't your mother teach you how to speak properly? Do you want your father to teach you?"

"Chinese, how dare you!"

Liu Kai finally smiled.

He took a deep drag on his cigarette butt and blew a smoke ring at the phantom in mid-air: "You motherfucker."

The man in white clearly hadn't expected Liu Kai to swear again.

He was so angry that he flew into a rage, and even the holographic projection trembled.

A skeletal, dead face, filled with gritted teeth, roared, "You will pay for what you said!"

"What price?"

Liu Kai asked with a serious and curious expression, "How about you suggest a place, and we'll have a fight?"

"snort!"

"Hmph, you motherfucker!"

"How dare you..."

"How dare you, you motherfucker!"

"I..."

"Fuck your mother!"

As the saying goes, insulting someone without mentioning their mother is like scraping their skin – it hurts as much as scraping.

Liu Kai regained the momentum he had when he was exchanging insults with his enemy on the street.

Every word he uttered implied the other person's mother, whose fate was unknown.

Anyway, I'm just a small fry, a petty thug, and I'm foul-mouthed, so what?

Upon seeing this, Qiu Xingzhou not only did not blame Liu Kai for his rudeness, but even laughed out loud: "Very perceptive."

However, the man in white was clearly very angry.

His eyes burned with fury, as if he wanted to devour Liu Kai alive.

Just as he was about to offer some explanation...

Suddenly, his body trembled, and he bowed and scraped to the void beside him: "I'm sorry, Patriarch... yes... I was wrong... I'll ask right away."

Liu Kai then realized that these "skeleton soldiers" were just lowly minions.

Its real owner is standing right next to it.

When the "skeleton soldier" turned around again, he had completely suppressed the anger in his eyes.

With a wave of his hand, the holographic projection flickered once more.

Three bright spots suddenly condensed in the void.

Once the image was fully formed, Liu Kai realized that the three bright spots were actually three crystal-like stones.

The crystals all have fairly standard complex polygonal shapes, the only difference being their size.

The first piece is a colorless crystal the size of a fist, with an octagonal pattern engraved on the front.

In the very center of the octagon is a pair of yin-yang fish, and around it are more than a dozen layers of dense lines.

Liu Kai raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised.

This is actually the "Fuxi Sixty-Four Hexagrams Diagram" from the Book of Changes!

The second crystal is slightly smaller and has a bright yellow color throughout.

But upon closer inspection, one can almost see a red glow within it.

Liu Kai was also very familiar with the pattern above.

An eye, its eyeball ablaze with flames.

It is the pattern on the "Tsutenaka Badge" used by Japanese Prime Minister Taro Kono when he contacted the mysterious person.

Having read this far, Liu Kai understood.

The Kaze family is one of the three "destined" families mentioned by the mysterious people of Japan!

The pattern on the crystal is also their family symbol.

The third and final crystal was enormous, as tall as a person.

It is entirely green, and the carved pattern on it resembles the caduceus on an ambulance.

The only difference is that the symbol for first aid is a single snake staff, while this symbol is a double snake staff.

"Chinese man, please answer: have you ever seen any other crystals similar to these three types?"

Hearing the "skeleton soldier" ask the question in a nonchalant tone, Liu Kai was completely baffled.

Did they go to all that trouble to specifically ask me this question?

But he had never seen it before.

Moreover, the tone of the "skeleton soldier" still made him feel uncomfortable.

So Liu Kai continued in an annoyed tone, "Never seen it before."

"Think about it again, are you sure you haven't seen it before?!"

"Are you deaf or stupid? I told you, I've never seen one!"

"call..."

The white-robed "skull soldier" felt his anger, which he had barely managed to suppress, surge back up, causing his chest to heave uncontrollably.

But before he could continue to berate him, he shuddered once more.

He bowed to the void beside him.

He glanced at Liu Kai with ill intent, then turned and left, disappearing from the projected image.

Immediately afterwards.

Another middle-aged figure, also dressed in a white robe and slightly overweight, appeared in the holographic projection.

Seeing this person's fair, chubby, smiling face with dimples.

The smile on General Secretary Qiu Xingzhou's face disappeared, and he became somewhat gloomy.

Unlike the arrogant "skeleton soldier" from before, the plump middle-aged man smiled very amiably.
